Feel heartbeat / pulse above belly button?!

Hi there! I’m 12 weeks pregnant and last night started feeling my own pulse just above my belly button - it’s more annoying than anything but just want to check if anyone had this? It’s definitely my pulse, not the baby as that would be too early and it’s too high up!

It's your abdominal Aorta pumping away, completely normal and easier to feel in pregnancy! X

So glad someone posted this! I’m 22 weeks now but been feeling this for ages and it was starting to freak me out. I can feel it so strongly when I put my hand on my belly too!
